NCT ID NCT03953300

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing This study
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study tests whether benralizumab can improve lung structure and function in people with severe eosinophilic asthma who still have symptoms despite standard treatments. About 75 adults aged 18-70 will receive either the drug or a placebo for 48 weeks, followed by a 4-week check-up. The goal is to see if the drug reduces airway inflammation and prevents long-term lung damage.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Male or female aged 18 through 70 years. 2. Physician-diagnosed asthma requiring continuous treatment with medium- or high-dose ICS plus LABA with or without additional controller medication for at least 12 months prior to Visit 1, and current treatment with high-dose ICS plus LABA for at least 3 months prior to Visit 1 with or without additional asthma maintenance medication. 3. Morning pre-BD FEV1 ≥50 to \<80% of predicted normal value (PNV) and ≥1 liter (L) or morning pre-BD FEV1 ≥ 50 to \< 90% of PNV, if historical pre-BD FEV1 value (within 12 months prior to screening visit) was \< 80% of PNV. 4. A blood eosinophil count meeting any of 3 criteria: ≥300 cells/µL during screening or ≥ 220 to \< 300 cells/μL during screening and documented eosinophil count of ≥ 300 cells/μL in the past 12 months, or ≥150 to \<300 cells/µL during screening plus one of the following: presence of nasal polyps or pre-BD FVC \<65% predicted at Visit 2 5. Negative pregnancy test. 6. Asthma control questionnaire (ACQ-6) \>1.5. 7. Fewer than 12 exacerbations within the 6 months prior to Visit 3. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Any disease or concomitant medication which could affect study results or safety of study participants, including: * current smokers * history of cancer * life-threatening asthma * clinically important pulmonary disease other than asthma 2. Use of chronic immunosuppressive medication or receipt of immunoglobulin (or blood products) within 30 days prior to the date informed consent is obtained. 3. Previously received: * benralizumab * live attenuated vaccines 30 days prior to the date of randomization. * bronchial thermoplasty in the last 24 months prior to Visit 1 * any investigational non-biologic within 30 days (or 5 half-lives) prior to the date informed consent is obtained, whichever is longer. * any marketed or investigational biologic for the treatment of asthma within 4 months (or 5 half-lives) prior to the date informed consent is obtained, whichever is longer. 4. Currently pregnant, breastfeeding or lactating women.
